Windows: If you're using the Installer build and you already
have a compatible JRE on your system SeaMonkey should recognize it. If you've manually
set the preference to disable automatic plugin searches then you can do the
following to get Java working: After the JRE is installed on your machine, copy
NPOJI610.dll from the install directory (something like C:\Program
Files\JavaSoft\JRE\<version>\bin) to your SeaMonkey plugins directory (something
like C:\Program Files\mozilla.org\SeaMonkey\plugins).

Linux Put a symlink to
/usr/java/jre<version>/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
in your plugins/ directory. In case of Java 1.5/5.0 or higher, use
/usr/java/jre<version>/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.sorather than/usr/java/jre<version>/plugin/i386/ns7-gcc29/libjavaplugin_oji.so.
(Note copying the file instead of making the symlink will cause Java to crash.)

With Linux RPM builds, you must install Java as the root user.

Mac OS X To take advantage of the newest Java VM
available (1.5.0 as of this writing) and to avoid some bugs of the outdated
Java 1.3.1 plugin, you have to install
Java Embedding Plugin for Mac OS X (Bug 274312)

To be able to sync between SeaMonkey's address book and your Palm,
choose Address Book Palm Sync Install in the SeaMonkey group in
the Start Programs menu. Note that if you set up your Palm to sync its
address book with SeaMonkey, the address book will no longer sync with the
Palm Desktop.

Once you have done this you can connect your Palm device and hit the HotSync
button on your Palm cradle. This should bring up the HotSync Manager dialog on
your desktop and should start SeaMonkey. Once sync is complete, close SeaMonkey and
then restart it and open SeaMonkey Address Book to verify the sync.

Some Palm users may need to add an extra step to this process
and add a registry key by hand.

Download this
registry key
and save to your hard drive. Note: this link no longer seems to work.

If your Palm software is not installed in C:\Palm then edit the registry
key file and set the proper path. Please make sure that the path you specify is
within " " and for each directory separator use two ( use \\ for each \ ).

Now go to Windows explorer and double click on this file. This should display a
message saying "Information in this file has been successfully entered into the
registry".

Many Linux systems (in particular, Red Hat Linux systems) have bad Arial
fonts. (Bug 46415)
If many Web pages, especially those using the Arial font, look unclear, small,
or hard to read, the following links explain two ways you can change your font
server to get better Arial fonts:

If that doesn't work, you may be able to fix the problem by renaming or removing
/usr/share/fonts/ISO8859-2. For instance, enter the following command:mv /usr/share/fonts/ISO8859-2 /usr/share/fonts.ISO8859-2

and then log out of Linux and log back in again. You can always undo this,
if necessary, by entering the following command:mv /usr/share/fonts.ISO8859-2 /usr/share/fonts/ISO8859-2

Note: the Quality Feedback Agent does not currently work with SeaMonkey

Quality Feedback Agent collects data
about SeaMonkey in the event of a crash. Such information helps SeaMonkey
developers to quickly isolate the cause of a crash and then correct it.
The software does not collect any sensitive information such as Web
sites visited and passwords.
Reporting crash data is one of many ways
in which users can help improve the quality of the software.
Participation is not required but highly recommended.

On Windows, if you are using automatic proxy configuration, you need
to edit your talkback.ini
file for Quality Feedback Agent to work.
